The present thesis is an advanced contribution to the design process of large synchronous generators with high number of poles. It proposes two original contributions, the first one allowing a very precise prediction of the no-load voltage and of the no-lo ...
This letter relates to the development of satellite reflectarrays able to scan a single dual-polarized beam, based on monolayer resonating cells embedding digital microelectromechanical systems (MEMS). We study general topology constraints to be imposed on ...

In the frame of the SPS upgrade an accurate impedance model is needed in order to predict the instability threshold and if necessary to start a campaign of impedance reduction. Analytical models, 3-D simulations and bench measurements are used to estimate ...
The polarity reversal of the lightning‐generated first sky wave as a function of the observation distance is studied using a novel approach combining the finite‐difference time domain (FDTD) method and the superposition principle of electromagnetic waves. ...
The transient liquid crystal technique is widely used for impingement heat transfer experiments. Additionally, due to the difficulty of producing pure temperature steps in the flow, many authors assumed the fluid temperature evolution as a series of step c ...
This paper discusses a time-domain technique for synthesizing acoustic impedance at the diaphragm of a loudspeaker using a proportional-plus-derivative output feedback. The dynamics of electroacoustic transducers such as moving-coil loudspeakers can be rea ...
Functional electrical stimulation (FES) is limited by the rapid onset of muscle fatigue caused by localized nerve excitation repeatedly activating only a subset of motor units. The purpose of this study was to investigate reducing fatigue by sequentially c ...
The present work describes a new methodology for contact free impedance of a solution in a polymer microchip taking into account the role played by the surrounding polymer on the impedance accuracy. Measurements were carried out using a photoablated polyet ...
This paper presents a study of similarities between electrical and hydraulic pressurized networks. The primary objective is to examine whether or not it is possible to use electrical laboratory networks measuring voltage to study leak-region detection stra ...
An experimental study, conducted with an advanced triaxial press, evaluates the effect of different loading paths on the dynamic behavior of natural Swiss sand. Emphasis is put on comparison between the dynamic parameters evaluated in a single loading (wit ...
